About The Author
Myra Wexler Darwish authored her first book, Jupiter Remembered, in 2013. Her second book, Until It’s Time: Embracing Life In Our Later Years, was published in 2024. Her books are available on Amazon, Apple, Barnes & Noble, Booklocker, and other fine vendors.
She and her loving spouse have been married for sixty-four years. She is a mother to three wonderful children and their spouses, a grandmother to three precious “grands,” and a great-grandmother to a "great grand."
She began her college path at 32, graduating with a BSN in Nursing from La Salle University in Philadelphia. Later, she earned an MSN in Family Nursing from UAH, in Huntsville, Alabama. She eventually became an associate professor of nursing. Her clinical practice focused on serving as an advanced clinical nurse specialist in two areas: gerontology (with an emphasis on geropsychiatry) and holistic nursing. In 2002, she received a non-traditional PhD in Natural Health, with her dissertation focusing on "The Emergence of Flower-Derived Complementary/Alternative Therapies for Healing the Body, Mind, Emotions, and Spirit." In 2012, Myra completed the "Interpretive and Applied Astrology Training Program" at Southwest Contemporary Astrology in Santa Fe, New Mexico, with world-class astrologer Erin Sullivan, and provided astrology consultations focused on families.
Now retired from teaching, Myra’s time is dedicated to her favorite passions: writing, reading, spending time with family and friends, traveling, astrological research, practicing peace/wellness strategies for the body/mind, and spirit, and learning to love well and embrace the beauty of each day.
She is currently working on her latest book, "Petals of Love: Poetry of a Woman's Soul," which is an anthology of her poems.
